Is there any international adoption agencies that work with older parents?

On every site I look the age limits are different for Kazakhstan! And I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on agencies.

There are no age limits to adopt from that country, but obviously each agency has its own requirements. The US state dept. says that 60+ year olds have found it difficult to adopt.

It is still free to adopt from foster care and any aged person can adopt from them as well.

AARP? Or maybe the Social Security Administraion?

Sometimes what you will find is that individual agencies will set their own criteria for age, rather than following what the country's guidelines are. Kaz has a very high age limit compared to most other countries, and in my opinion, all agencies should honor that. I would join the Kaz adoption yahoo group to find some suggestions. Good luck!
